I'm 6'4'' and every time i turn the handle bar it hits my knees and hurts like crazy! especially when i were boots. Do you think upping my steering stem size would help the problem? If so what size?

I personally love my +2 antivibe. It is way more comfortable for me espacially when I'm standing up. Just my .02

Im 5-10 and I have a houser +2. It is very good to me and the best thing for the back. You will be happy with a +2. Dont know if anyone makes +3.

I have a +1 and a +2 and for my height I would run a my +1 at 5'10. So I would go for a plus +2.

im 6'11 and i have a plus 2.75...as big as they can really go and still hold the same strength as a +2..... at 6'4 plus 2 would probably be perfect for you man..go for it..if your going to do it get a good one right off the bat...make sure its a antivibe one too
